Copper alloy wire AB65 made copper alloy cages in Aquaculture is a new way for the future . Copper alloy mesh naturally inhibits biofouling, improves water circulation, and helps maintain higher oxygen levels that prevent parasites and pathogens from growing and infecting fish. Copper alloy mesh allow cages to maintain their shape against strong ocean currents, even those offshore, so it prevent fish crowding and help improve yields. High-strength copper alloy mesh resists shark attacks and reduces escape of farmed fish. Copper alloy meshes do not need to be cleaned to dispose of biofouling that can grow on traditional polymer net. This lowers overall costs associated with maintenance and diver risk. Copper alloy mesh lasts for 5 years or more depending on application conditions, and is fully recyclable. Due to recyclable and no antibiotic,
it also created a friendly environment to the fish . On June 20th 2017, AB65+HDPE cage(ψ12m×6m) was installed in Penghu Islands/ Taiwan, to test prove its strength of anti-biofouling and typhoon endurance.
